CLIMATE. 



The Mean temperature of any place, for the year, is 
a matter of great importance. The mean temperature 
at the resorts along the South Jersey Coast is found 
to be 54 degrees. This is almost the point marked 
temperate on the thermometric scale, in fact, the 
isothermal line or line of equal heat indicating a 
temperature of 55 degrees which yearly average is 
to be found at very iew points on the face of the 
Globe, wherever the mean is found, just at the temperate 
point, there we have one of the most important desi- 
derata in the health and happiness and comfortable 
existence throughout the jear, makes the County of 
Cape May one of the most enjoyable spots on the face 
of the Globe in which to reside which is proven by 
its rapid growth. 

No resort on the coast is so admirably situated as 
Wildwood from the standpoint of ideal year-round 
climate and other natural advantages such as bathing, 
boating, fishing and crabbing. Instead of the wide 
stretch of heated sand behind it, the broad Delaware 
Ba}'-, a great inland sea, at this point thirty miles wide, 
insures cool breezes no matter what the direction of 
the wind. This is why it is always cool in Wildwood 
in summer and delightfully mild and balmy in winter. 

The island known as Five Mile Beach embraces three 
municipalities. 

The city of Wildwood which was formed in 191 1 
by the consolidation of Holly Beach with Wildwood in 
the centre, the borough of Wildwood Crest on the 
southerly end of the island, and North Wildwood, 
formerly Anglesea, on the northerly end. 

From the point on the northerly end boats run every 
half hour to Stone Harbor ; on the southerly end boats 
run every half hour to Cape May which is the extreme 
end or point of land between the Delaware Bay and 
Atlantic Ocean which makes this the coolest spot 
in the summer being less than six miles from Ocean 
to Bay. 

The deep Inland Water Way gives to Five Mile 
Beach, with the three canals running into the very 
centre of the business part of the island, cheap trans- 
portation. The fishing for pleasure is known 'to every 
angler of the East as the very best. As an industry, 
thousands of barrels of fish are shipped to all parts of 
the country annually- Fish of every variety of the 
deep sea-beach bass or drum fish weighing 50 to 7S lbs. 
are caught, and at the compiling of this book thousands 
of visitors are viewing the horse mackerel weighing 
1080 lbs., caught in the ocean 5 miles from this resort. 

Mackerel-cod, porgies, weak-fish, blue-fish, flounders, 
sea bass and king fish being the principal fish shipped.

JERSEY COAST RESORTS 



Increase of Seaside Resorts as Recorded in Their 
Annual Taxable Valuables 



FIVE MILE BEACH HAS BIG GAIN 



The subjoined tables show the assessable values 
and growth of the seashore resorts of Cape May- 
County, according to the yearly return of the tax 
assessor. It is interesting to note, that in : 1891, 
when Atlantic City's total values reached $10,865,- 
634, it may be said to have reached the same period 
of growth and occupied approximately the same 
area as the resorts on Five Mile Beach do in 1913. 
The actual increase in twelve years of Five Mile 
Beach is $10,609,444, making an average of over 
$2,422 a day, or just about a new house daily for 
that period. The history of Atlantic City's growth, 
as well as that of the leading resorts of Cape May 
County, as recorded in their increase of taxable 
values, is given below:

Anglesea, Wildwood, Holly Beach and Wildwood

MAY POLE, DECORATION DAY 

Boat trips from the northern end of the island at 
old Anglesea. There are several lines of boats run- 
ning between Anglesea, Stone Harbor and Avalon, 
which is continued by way of Ocean City to Atlantic 
City. A fine one-day trip at small expense, costing 
little more than $i.oo each way. There is also a fleet 
of about 100 boats that leave Anglesea each morning 
on the arrival of the excursion trains for the fishing 
banks where the finest deep sea fishing is to be had 
to which they cater, returning in the evening in time 
to catch the returning trains. Thousands enjoy these 
fishing trips each day. 

From the Southern end of Wildwood Crest boats 
leave every half hour for Cape May, fare 30 cents round 
trip. Very pleasant outings for a warm afternoon.

BOTH

HE location of Wills Hotel 
and Cafe is ideal — just at 
the ocean end of Cedar 
Avenue — the nearest hotel 
to the Beach on the island, 
within a few steps of all 
the Piers, Theatre, Board- 
walk — in fact, the centre 
of everything. 

This Hotel (European 
Plan) has 50 large, airy 
rooms, at $1.00 per day 
up, newly furnished 
throughout. The Cafe 
serves meals at all hours 
(a la carte bill) at moderate 
prices. Delicious shore 
dinners, prepared, by well 
known chef. 

The open garden is an at- 
tractive feature at this 
Hotel, and the Harrison 
& Durne Banjo Orchestra 
will play for the entertain- 
ment of our guests. 

Dancing may be enjoyed 
on our new tango floor, if 
one so desires.
